User rights and profiles
Each user may have multiple accounts but can access EUDAMED with only one account at a time.
Each EUDAMED account is associated with one of the following actors:
Manufacturer
Authorised Representative
System/Procedure Pack Producer
Importer
Each of these actors has a set of roles that are specific to each module in EUDAMED. The actions and rights connected to each role are defined by the user profile of that user (i.e. Viewer, Verifier, Linker, LAA etc.) so user profiles are module specific.
Your user profile is determined by your actor (see table). For example, in Actors module, the Verifier profile is only enabled for Authorised Representative actors. The Linker profile is a specific profile which is enabled only for Importer actors, which allows them to create links with non-EU manufacturers in this module.
User profiles in the actor module:
User profile | Actor | Rights |
|---|---|---|
Viewer | All | May only view registered actors and own actor details |
Verifier | Authorised Representative | View + verify non-EU manufacturer registration requests and verify/terminate associated mandates |
Mandate manager | Non-EU manufacturer | View + submit/manage mandates with authorised representative(s) |
Linker | Importer | View + link importer with non-EU manufacturer(s) |
Local User Administrator (LUA) | All | Verify/manage mandates/ link (depending on actor role) + manage users and user access requests |
Local Actor Administrator (LAA) | All | LUA + manage actor data and notification email addresses |
Hierarchy of user profiles
Profiles are hierarchical, i.e. higher-level profiles contain all lower-level grants/rights.
– e.g. LAA is the highest profile and contains the rights of all the profiles beneath it in the hierarchy.
User profiles per actor and their hierarchy:
Authorised representative | Manufacturer | System and procedure pack producer | Importer |
|---|---|---|---|
LAA | LAA | LAA | LAA |
LUA | LUA | LUA | LUA |
Verifier | Mandate manager | – | Linker |
Viewer (default) | Viewer (default) | Viewer (default) | Viewer (default) |
